Jets news:
Winnipeg Free Press: Pavelec is in the zone. There is no question he has been heads and tails better this season but the question many of the doubters have is whether this hot streak is sustainable?
Winnipeg Sun: Jets enjoying current hot streak. But can it last? The good news is there isn’t a tremendous amount of Jets news today which is probably a good thing as Ken gives you plenty to digest in this column.
Winnipeg Sun: Jets’ Enstrom to skate in milestone 500th game Tuesday. He scored an absolute beauty in game #499 of his career on Sunday and Jets fans hope to see plenty more shots from the small Swede with the big shot.
